I might sometimes say smoething like "Ugh, I'd have lost more with your hand."

[/ QUOTE ]

This could be construed as criticism.

It is, but fish are results oriented and I like them that way. Now that I think of it, this is probably the smartest thing I regularly say.

If people seem upset I generally stay quiet. If they discuss the hand at all, I will generally console them with some sort of BS empathy. Really your goal should be to keep the mood of a game light and friendly. Talking after a hand certainly isn't rude as long as what is said isn't rude.

There's a good chance whoever said that to you was a 60+ yr old nit who only speaks to complain about the dealer.

"This game is eeeeeeasy." is my personal favorite, especially after a disgusting donkey punch.

"Oh thank god, I was out of meth"

"You've been playing how long?"

"Pimpin ain't easy"

"Sucker!"

I see your rack is empty, can I have it?

Normally I try to be a total gentleman when I play.

Earlier tonight I was playing the douchebaggiest kid of all time. He was full of asinine comments and smartass remarks, especially as he was dragging a pot. When I busted him, I found myself lacking a douchey comment of my own.

Now I have one for next time!

Thanks Tom [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].

If you just laid a nice beat on a WPT douche then I believe "Ship It!" is standard.

I don't tend to say anything, just 'cause I'm sensitive to not pissing people off. Unless of course I'm playing with friends, and then it's basicaly "holy crap you are HORRIBLE at poker".
